Jayasurya-Nadirshah film launched

We recently reported that Jayasurya would be reteaming with director Nadirshah after five years for a new film. The film's launch function took place in Kochi, with shooting planned for the first week of December. Actor Arun Narayan's production company is bankrolling the film.

Jayasurya and Nadirshah last collaborated on Amar Akbar Anthony. Another Amar Akbar Anthony cast member, Namitha Pramod, is playing the female lead. The film is being touted as a thriller and has a script by Suneesh Varanad, who wrote the Indrajith-Manju Warrier film, Mohanlal.

Roby Varghese Raj (Love Action Drama, The Great Father) is the director of photography. The team had initially announced Sujith Vaassudev as the DOP.

Shameer Muhammed is handling the editing. Nadirshah will be composing the music to Sujesh Hari's lyrics. Jakes Bejoy will provide the background score.

The project is said to be a change of track for Nadirshah. He recently completed production of Keshu Ee Veedinte Nathan, starring Dileep and Urvashi as a middle-aged couple.

Meanwhile, Jayasurya is shooting for Ranjith Sankar's Sunny, in which he plays a musician.
